Best Asian Movies | Best Asian Films of the Decade | 21CB: "3. MEMORIES OF MURDER (2003, South Korea)
Dir: Bong Joon-ho. Starring: Song Kang-ho, Kim Sang-kyung, Kim Roe-ha.
Though popular in its home country of South Korea (the 4th most viewed film after the end of its run), Memories of Murder is eclipsed on the world stage by that other Korean film, Grand Prix winner Oldboy, or even Bong’s more recent monster film, The Host.
This one is by far the best. It follows small town detective Park, who is joined by Seoul hotshot investigator Seo in solving a serial murder and rape case, based on real events from 1986-1991.
Complex, genre-bending, and thrilling, this is what Fincher’s 2007 film Zodiac should have been. The last shot is one of the most haunting of all time. Now one of my favorite movies,"
